After six months in Australia playing for the Adelaide Lightning in the Women’s National Basketball League, Samantha Logic is hoping for a call. The 2011 Case High School graduate wants another shot in the Women’s National Basketball Association.
“I’m playing until I’m broken, that’s for sure,” said the 24-year-old Logic. “I want to be at the highest level I can be at and I think the WNBA is what the highest level is, outside of the Olympics. The desire is still there. I still think it’s the best job in the entire world.”

Halftime in the deciding Game 3 of the EuroLeague Women quarter-final between Nadezhda and Prague right now. Nadezhda up big early despite being without Zahui B, lead whittled down to 3 at the break. Live and free here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZvKLcRWm4s

Congrats to Mo, Jonquel and their squad on the championship!! It is good to see Amber Harris doing well. Any idea if she will make it back to the W anytime soon? As always, thank you for the updates and please tell Mo "Happy Lent!" She is quite missed on social media!

Ohhh, that EuroCup Women matchup between Galatasaray (MoJeff, Alben) and Yakin Dogu (McBride, Essence, Slooty, Hollingsworth, Leuchanka, A. Robinson) seems like it was good! I may have to check out the stream!

The info from the Israeli league shows Holmes having an Israeli passport. Does anyone know if that is accurate? Could she become a member of their National Team?

Where do you see that? I looked on the league website and there do not appear to be nationality markings for any of the players. I have seen them label incorrectly for the men's second division before. It seems improbable because her team would then sign a third foreigner if she was not taking up one of their slots.

The picture shows 3 other players with the US flag, Hopkins, Adams and Baron.

That's not an official site. It looks like they have not marked Baron, Diamant, or Feder as Jewish and thus entitled to play as non-foreigners, which they all are. Looking at some other teams, they messed up on a few too like Shafir who is not American at all.

awhom111, you must keep tabs on all manner of basketball websites to produce all of this - have you seen anything about where the FIBA Women's World Cup games will be played next year? Obviously Spain are the hosts, but I'm hoping for a little more specificity than that. Thinking about a little late-summer holiday...

I looked around for more information, but could not find anything. Considering venues for some events this summer have not been picked yet, I guess we should not expect to know more.

awhom or anyone who can answer, what are your thoughts on Shao Ting? Anything you can share about her?

At the Asian level, she's versatile, but not particularly elite at anything. WNBA inquiry or just a general question?

Don't have much hope for Gyor, as they just barely beat Miskolc. This without Prahalis, who left the team, and Ruffin-Pratt, who was injured. It's unfortunate, Sammy's numbers were not good on this team, but this team did not know how to use her at all, and put her in in weird spots. Just not a good situation overall.

She left her team at the start of the playoffs??

Yeah before the playoffs started. "Left the team" maybe doesn't sound good and probably not completely accurate. Maybe "her and the team mutually decided to part ways" would be more accurate, but that was kind of long.
